HDR is like crack


I keep telling myself HDR is bad and wrong, but...
It's so hard to say no.
I finally broke down and decided to evaluate some of the HDR programs out there. The one I see referenced most often is Photomatix. However, I was less than impressed with the user interface and performance of it, so decided to download a bunch of others: Artizan, Dynamic Photo HDR, easyHDR, and a half dozen more. I kept coming back to Dynamic Photo HDR, since it has a simple, useful user interface, runs VERY quickly on my AMD Turion TL-58 powered Toshiba, and has a great price to boot. Will probably attempt to use it for less garish stuff in the future, but right now I can't help but push those sliders too far...

Push...push...
